He's got mental issues, its almost like he blacked out and didnt know he did it lol

i could actually buy into "him not knowing he did it".. he's not all there.

like when that fan threw that cup on him and he rushed the stands.. a switch flipped and he just turned into a machine.

he's one of those dudes who are "fight or fight" not "fight or flight" .. i've met a few of them in my life on the basketball court .. they are just always ready to throw down it's crazy. One of the worst ones I met, street ball dude, ended up going to prison for assaulting someone with a crowbar. I probably saw him fight ~5+ times in only a year since he was down from NY. That's a ton of fights in such a short time.. just always ready to throw down, even if you just fouled him hard. (on some level) He reminds me alot of Artest. Even if you were friends with him, you were always nervous around him.. Extremely volatile.

edit: Also I remember Artest's best friend got stabbed in the heart & died, during a brawl on a street court?
